My Dear Friends,

With a huge broken heart and deep sadness, I want to let you know that the love of my life, and founder of our work, awesome friend and teacher to so many you, Arny, passed away peacefully this morning due to complications around aging. I’m sure that is a shock for many of you as it is for me. I want you to know that he loved this community so much and to be in contact with everyone online and in person over so many years. He lives inside of each of us that he has touched, and he would want me to give his love to each one of you now.

As you know, Arny’s greatest drive in life was to be of help to everyone, and to make the world a better place for all. I witnessed how he spent every single day following that calling. It was his deepest passion and drive, and reason for being.

Developing process work came to birth from that feeling and to find a way to work with all the different facets of our human experience.

Some time ago, he told me that when he was no longer here in his bodily form, we could connect and talk with him by looking at and communicating with the sea, his beloved sea. And he said that when anyone dies, they are not just dead. We are not just bodies, we are a spirit and dreaming behind them, so he and all of us are always there. So, remember he is there, and you can connect with him whenever needed.

Yesterday, I showed him a photo (from the early 80s) that I put into the book of stories I am creating about him. The publisher put this picture, so it filled an entire page. I wasn’t sure Arny would like that, since he never wanted to make a big deal out of himself. But he said, “Oh yes, great photo, do it!” So, I’m attaching it here.

I will create an online celebration of his life sometime when I am able and will let you know. And please excuse me if I am unable to answer all of your messages.

With a heavy heart and love, and arny’s deepest love and of course his Woof! to everyone.

Love,
Amy
